1. How-to books make up 0.3 of the books in the school library. Of these how-to books, 0.2 deal with carpentry and 0.4 deal with electronics.

0.3×0.4=0.12
Interpret what the answer 0.12 represents in this equation above.

Sara discarded 1/10 x 200 = <<1/10*200=20>>20 apples as defective.
So, she sold 200 - 20 = <<200-20=180>>180 apples. Answer: \boxed{180}.

The answer 0.12 represents the proportion of books in the school library that are both how-to books and deal with electronics.
Answered by GPT 3.5
Apologies for the confusion. No, the interpretation of 0.12 in the equation above is incorrect in my previous response.

The correct interpretation is that 0.12 represents the proportion of all the books in the school library that are both how-to books (0.3) and deal with electronics (0.4), or in other words, the proportion of books that fall into both categories.
